10/24/2009 - Storming the castle... again...

OK, more info about you current situation.

First, internal mail delivery is pretty much only for packages, maybe a small handful of envelopes per month. While there are plenty of packages delivered to the building, very few get delivered to most floors. So trying to get around the building pretending to be delivering mail is going to be at least a little conspicuous, so you'll need to do a fair amount of internal legwork to get away with that. Unless you convince someone to actually give you access to the elevators, pretending to work int he mail room doesn't help much.

As far as you can tell, they've given you a tour of as much of the building as they plan too. They don't tell you guys much about the upper floors. When asked they tell you that the top half of the building is mostly executive office space, and workspace for a few secret projects.

Everyone arrives to work in business-casual clothes, and they change corporate suits after arriving. Everyone is in dark suits wit white shirts, the only thing that sets people apart is that they all show a single piece of gold jewelry. There doesn't seem to be a pattern to the jewelry, it just seems like everyone has one piece of obvious but tasteful gold. There are a few magical pieces for those looking from the astral.

There are spirits wondering around the building, and almost every om is protected by ward, although the wards on the first few floors are so porous that anyone can sleaze through with little effort, except on the elevator shafts. You are wand about the wards before getting into the elevators, so astrally perceiving visitors can drop their astral activity before being pushed into a ward.

There are security cameras an fiber optic surveillance everywhere. No one is wearing badges, so security is based off of proximity badges or tokens, or visual/aural/chemical biometrics. This will make unauthorized access very hard, unless you can convince someone to give you badges (if they use proximity badges) or put your biometric characteristics in the security system.

Most of the wards are force 8, which make them very hard to get through.

Remember, you need to deliver the box to the executive's desk without killing anyone.Everyone involved will get 10k nuyen.

And since I just got this information after the mission, not sure if this will help or not, but that single piece of gold jewelry, which is showing, I think might be what the fiber optics picks up. It is different for each person and it is visible. It is the best guess I have on that stuff.
